Dollar sign not beeing highlighted when double clicking variable

VS Code 1.8.1
Windows 7

When I try to double click any of the variable names with a dollar sign ($) in my angular code the dollar sign is not beeing highlighted.

For example double clicking on $scope here only marks scope.
$scope.data = data;

Is there an easy fix for this?

Interesting - the dollar sign is being tokenized as part of $scope, so not sure what's up.

@alexandrudima @rebornix - any ideas?

@stibay Please configure the setting editor.wordSeparators to your liking.

Here is the default (notice how $ is listed as a word separator):

"editor.wordSeparators": "`~!@#$%^&*()-=+[{]}\\|;:'\",.<>/?",

Ah perfect 👍 Maybe that should be standard (like it's in Visual Studio)?
